GG Shots May Halt Some Polio
Gamma globulin used to ward off polio may have prevented some paralytic cases. A nationwide survey, led by Dr. Alexander D. Langmuir, suggests as many as 800 cases may have been prevented, though proof remains elusive. The study analyzes GG injections given to 185,000 children in 23 epidemic areas and aims to reveal whether preattack GG modifies paralysis. It may provide key public health insights for polio prevention.
